Temitayo NathanToyin OyeneyeYitschaq Adore and Leylarh Cadne were four talented people who were chasing their dreams individually until the 7th of June, 2014. On that day, the four young contestants who made up Team Elan beat competition from eight other fashion teams at the Fayrouz L’Original regional competition in Enugu to go through to the final of the competition in Lagos.

 

The multi-talented fashion quartet made up of a designer (Temitayo Nathan), photographer (Yitschaq Adore), Make-Up Artist (Leylarh Cadne) and Model (Toyin Oyeneye) had got through earlier rounds of the competition which featured over 350 teams from across the country. Together with Loud Tribe, they then progressed to the finale in Lagos on July 5, 2014 to compete for the $20,000 prize.

 

At the finale which held at the Oriental Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos, judges Mai AtafoKunbi Oyelese of April by Kunbi and KinaButi had a hard time choosing between both teams but eventually, Team Elan emerged as winners and they took home the voted N4 million prize while Loud Tribe went home with $4000.

In one of a number of fashion opportunities enjoyed by the fashion ensemble, Temitayo Nathan under the trade name TI Nathan was featured at the prestigious Lagos Fashion & Design Week where he exhibited designs on the same runway with fashion titans like Lanre Da Silva, Maki Oh and the Okunoren Twins.
